32GB microsd cards coming soon?

Since I've bought my Omnia II I've been looking forward to getting a 32GB microsd card which the device claims to support. Only problem is that they don't exist yet and I can't find any information on when I can expect them to be in the market, or how much i'll be expected to shell out for one.
Anyone else holding out for a 32GB card? 16GB is a lot, but not nearly enough to hold all my music, let alone having room left for taking photo's/videos.

hopefully in a few months ,according to this http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/13/samsung-announces-64gb-movinand-flash-32gb-microsd-card/

I wouldn't hold out for anything...

The new crop of microSD cards are getting ridiculous storage capacities for something this small - step back 16GB microSD cards, the 32GB cards are coming to town. SanDisk just might be the first to release microSD cards of this capacity.
By the way, this is the Swan song of microSDHC - they are capped at 32GB capacity. Coming to replace them will be the microSDXC variety (XC stands for "extended capacity").
Getting back on topic, SanDisk will release the world's first 32GB microSD cards next month and their price is expected to be 200 US dollars (150 euro), which obviously includes he early adopter's fee and the bragging rights that come with it.
We're joking of course, but 16GB microSD cards from SanDisk can be had for as low as 40 bucks - buying a phone with a hot-swappable card slot sounds like a good idea, doesn't it?
But if you absolutely must have one, you'd need 200 dollars by next month when these cards start shipping.
Source 200$?? LOL,,LET OBAMA PAY FOR EVERYONE OF THEM

Hai everybody, i am a new member to forums, so i am intereseted
and want to gain knowledge on this topics..........................thank u

I'm using SunDisc 32 Gb class 2 without any problem. It is not very good for watching films from it because 2 class (slow for film streaming with high bitrate), but for data, photo and music it is very nice. I copy film from card in to internal (8 Gb) memory and watch it.

Not all micro SD class 10 have the same speed my friend.
class 10 card means that meets the minimum requirements of class 10 of SD Card Association protype, which is 10 MB/second
in fact some quality class 6 cards may give you speed more than 10 MB/s, while cheap - low quality class 10 will give you just 10 MB/s or even worse theoretically 10MB/s under perfect weather ect condintions.....
par example samsung sd class 10 plus gives you up to these
• Speed Rating Speed (read) : 24MB/s
• Speed (write) : 21MB/s
which i think worth the few extra usd.
same brand's class 6 cards give you
Speed (Read) 17MB / sec.
Speed (Write) 12 ~ 13MB / sec.
which is much faster than low quality class 10
So you should rethink about class 10 now

Yeah i agree.
My Class 6 Sandisk transfers at 10MB/s beating my Class 6 32GB Gskill transferring at 6 MB/s max.

Which SD Card to get?

I am inbetween these two cards. One is a Kingston 16GB Kingston class 4, while the other is a 32GB Sandisk class 2. The only thing I'm concerned about is the speeds on the 32GB Sandisk SD Card, how do you think it will compare with the Kingston?

Real world performance... most won't notice any difference in speed. Go with the 32 GB, as the extra storage can be extremely handy.

I use the 32gb with an Incredible, speed is fine.

I compared 3 cards. Sandisk 16GB class 2, Transcend 16GB class 6, Sandisk 16GB class 4.
The Sandisk 16GB class 2 actually out performed the other 2 cards in write speed. The Sandisk class 4 had a slightly higher read speed than the class two but just not enough to justify the price difference, so I went with the Sandisk class 2 cause it's an all round performer and it's cheaper than the other 2.
I got mine for $27.00 locally

I got the 32g from Verizon. It's a class two, but all the Sd Card "Benchmark Apps" rate it as a class 4 for what its worth. Definitely the 32g...Way handy!

Thanks for all the responses guys. I guess I'll definitely be going with the 32 GB one then!!

Look on new egg you can get 32 gb for about 70$$ there, it's where I got mine
Sent from my HTC Incredible

I got the Kingston 32 gb Class 2 on ebay for $49 free shipping. You may want to look there.

Get one of these two Microsd cards if possible
I have found this card at newegg class 10. 16gb, even got a review for the htc incredible that was not bad, but the person did say that it only read it as a class 6. Was only $28. its sold out as of right now, but when it comes back you should probably get one. Im hoping this company makes a 32gb version.
but if you want a known name brand then I would go with Patriot 16gb class 10 microsd which happens to be also out of stock but goes for $38. Probably just the price difference on name brand, but you never know. both are unfortunately sold out. means they are hot right now.

[Q] Sandisk 32Gb and Windows 7

Hi, there's a comment on Amazon that this card is not compatible with Windows 7. Does that make sense? Does it mean Windows Phone 7?
Anyway, is this card the best 32Gb option for the HD2 at the moment even if it is Class 2? £55 is not such a bad price especially if the Kingston class 4 doesn't work so well for £75.
Thanks

DW about it thats another BS topic for whole diff day as why M$ made this backward standard. Get it you will be fine as HD2 does support it and beacuse its rated as Class 2 does not mean its bad matter of fact SanDisk 32GB Class 2 out runs Kingston 32GB Class 4. As SanDisk simply make superior mSD all class rating mean is the minimum speed meets that requirement.
If you ask me I say look in my sig and go with Patriot LX 32GB Class 10 Newegg has it for $100 atm

Thanks. Couldn't see the Patriot here in the UK so ordered the Sandisk.

Most pc's support SDHC cards, so I would just ignore it

Which SD to buy ?

I have been using Sandisk 16GB Class 4 for a while now, and I need to increase my storage (32GB)
I am confused between these two cards:
Samsung 32GB Class 10 for 1599 INR (29.43 USD)
Sandisk 32GB Class 4 for 1216 INR (22.38 USD)
Which one should I go for ?

If your not looking for fast write speeds or using as a "swapped" internal memory, just go for the class 4, never pay more than you need for memory cards, they date to fast.

I thought greater speed (class10) would be nice,
I was just wondering if samsung is good against sandisk or not ?
Also does samsung cards work with WP7 ?

i am using samsung class 6
16gb
and it works flawlessly for wp7 and native sd (android)

Why not go for the 64GB cards that are available now? They are selling for around $50 (for a SanDisk class 10 even) and they work great in an HD2. See my posts about this here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33028241&postcount=9 Basically the same post here as well, but I added a bit more info http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33102891#post33102891 You can never have too much storage space.

Be careful with class 10 cards as for phone memory use they are not the best.
Good quality class 4 or 6 is best all round card with better sequential speeds that are more in line with phone usage thus better performers & cheaper/easier sourced plus less prone to issues/compatibility ...

i use sandisk

I bought the Samsung 32GB Class 10. It is really fast. I'm using Android via NAND and you can improve your smartphon experience by upgrading your system with this card a lot.

I use a 16GB class 10 Sandisk micro sd

I use SanDisk Ultra microSDHC UHS-1 8GB card.
Worked very well with JellyTime NativeSD ROM and now with WP7 ROM 8858. So cheap and lightning fast. I recommend it for everyone, great memory card!

I use 32 GB Class10 Transcend Extrem Speed (Ultimate), this card has a very well performance with WP7 and NativeSD.
http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=1582172
Second place in random speed (4k R/W)!
Which is important for WP7, NativeSD or Nandroid with A2SD, DataOnExt, ect.

Class 4 san disk cards are better than class 10 san disk cards for dual booting?

I was reading this forum post which claimed that a class 4 card is actually faster than a class 10 card for Cyanogenmod on the microsd card. Is that true? I currently have the 64GB san disk class 10 card (the red/grey one) as my card. It does tend to lag a bit if i'm swiping from one home screen to another. Would a class 4 card give me smoother performance?

If it's a Sandisk class 10, it's probably fine.
What the problem is that Sandisk's class 4 cards often perform better than the class 10 cards from other manufactures like Patriot. I have a class 4 Sandisk and a class 10 Patriot and the Sandisk is superior at 4k performance. But the class 10 Sandisk is probably fine (assuming it's a real Sandisk and not a counterfeit).

Thanks, oh you're Ravynmagi from that same thread eh? Hahaha

Class 10 cards are best for long r/w for large files or a video camera. Most of what the tablet or phones do are shorter r/w and a class 6 or 4 will do fine or even be superior. This is particularly true for cards that are used for part of the operating system. This info was gleaned from experience with Android, NativeSD roms. If you search nativesd + hd2 there much info.
Many of the class 10 labeled cards are mislabeled anyway. A name brand like Sandisk will be more quality tested and properly labeled.

Hello guys, this is my first post here. Instead of starting a new thread, I thought it'll be appropriate to post in a thread about sd cards. I'm planning to buy microsd cards for my new Nook HD+, which is on the way. Does UHS-1 micreosd cards work with Nook HD+? I want to dual boot with cynagen mod on sd card. Which class'll be the best for running android from the sdcard? Also I want to make a back up of my Nook HD+ stock version, what size card is enough for that?
The card that I have in mind is a Strontium 16GB UHS-1 MicroSDHC Card. In its product description it says "Compatible with SDHC and SDXC host devices; not compatible with standard SD-enabled devices/readers" and "Compliant with the new UHS-I specification for ultra-high speed interfaces for SD specifications. Can only be used in UHS-I mode in UHS-I compatible devices." (I can't post link since it's my first post)
I got confused after reading that highest class won't give optimal performance. I hope some one here will help me in this. Thank you.

SanDisk class 4 are the best to use for everything on the HD/HD+. The device does not work reliably with faster cards.
You need about 1.5GB to do a stock backup, so a 2GB is enough.

Thanks leapinlar for that quick reply. So, a 16 or 32GB class 4 sandisk card for the dual boot and another 2GB card for the stock backup is all I need. Thanks again.

The "class' rating is only a measure of large sequential write performance, as in using it for an HD video camera. The class rating has no bearing at all on random access speeds or small reads and writes. Many sandisk class 4's have faster small random read/write performance than many class 10 cards, but its worthwhile to look at benchmarks for a card you're looking at or a list of top cards for tablet/phone usage that keys on small random read/write performance for optimal performance.
In fact, the sd card market is loaded with class 10 cards that stink at pretty much every other measure than large sequential writes.

SD cards 16G and larger are only made as class 10 devices. Properly formatting the SD card will improve it's performance.

To be more specific - SD cards 16G and greater are manufactured to meet class 10 standards. To get the most money from their products the production line is optimized to make the fastest and most expensive product. Products that miss the QC marks for "A" grade (class 10) will/should easily pass "B" grade (class 4) specifications. The class 10 data bus can run at faster speeds than a class 4. It can also
r u n s l o w e r, meeting fully the class 4 specifications. Often manufacturers will mark their perfectly good class 10 products as class 4 to fulfill market demands. Think making money.

It's seems to be true. Bought "Exployd 4 class micro SD" and it's running at 10 class speed at read/write (always over 12Mb).

See this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1005633 for extensive discussions of comparative performance of different vendor/model SD-cards. For the purpose of running ROMs, look out for cards with high throughput in randomized read/write access, not in sequential read/write access.
FWIW, I am using exclusively Sandisk class 4, having had terrible results (lots of Wait & Force-Close) with class 10 and 6 cards from a mix of vendors.
